Dear Mr. Cockfield:
SUBJECT:
TROJAN NUCLEAR PLANT - ENYlRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AhD FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMFACT - TEMPORARY EXEMPTION FROM THE SCHEDULAR REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROPERTY INSURANCE RULE EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 4, 1988 (10CFR50.54(w)(5)(i))
On August 5, 1927, the NRC published in the _ Federal Register a final rule amending 10CFR50.54(w). The rule increased the amount of on-site property damage insurance required to be carried by NRC's power reactor licensees. The rule also required these licensees to obtain by October 4,1988 insurance policies that prioritized insurance proceeds for stabilization and decontamina-tion after an accident and provided for payment of proceeds to an independent trustee who would disburse funds for decontamination and cleanup before any other purpose.
Subsequent to publication of the rule, the NRC has been informed by insurers who offer nuclear property insurance that, despite a good faith effort to obtain trustees required by the rule, the decontamination priority and trusteeship provisions will not be able to be incor) orated into policies by the time required in the rule.
In response to tiese comments and related petitions for rulemaking, the Comission has )roposed a revision of 10 CFR 50.54(w)(5)(i) extending the implementation scledule for 18 months (53 FR 36338, September 19, 1988). However, because it is unlikely that this rulemaking action will be corrpleted by October 4,1988, the Commission is issuing a ternporary exemption frontherequirementsof10CFR50.54(w)(5)(1)untilcompletionofthependin rulemaking extending the implementation date specified in 10 CFR 50.S4(w)(5)(g),
1 but not later than April 1, 1989.
Upon completion of such rulemaking, the licensee shall comply with the provisions of such rule.
